The Uruguayan swapped Anfield for Barcelona last summer, and he thinks Gerrard, who will join LA Galaxy in the summer will come back in some capacity.

He said: "All I can say is that it would never surprise me to see him return to Liverpool in some capacity. To say he loves the club would not do his feelings for Liverpool justice, Liverpool is a part of him."

Darren Bent has slammed Aston Villa Paul Lambert boss for the way he treated him during his time at Villa Park.

"Is that it for me at Villa now? Who knows? While this manager's in charge it'd seem like it," said Bent.
